r/ios26

I can't believe that Apple will return with the horrible flat design of iOS 18 on iOS 27, it's one of the worst decisions I've ever seen from this company. I spent years really wanting this perfect 2D and 3D effect that the iOS 26 icons brought and I was very excited about its launch, now seeing the beta version of 27 makes me never want to leave iOS 26 again. This black border disgusts me...

The first screenshot is from iPhone 13, the second is from iPhone 12 Pro Max. Both running iOS 26.5.2. See how iPhone 13 has a sharp visible border around the player, while 12 Pro Max has seamless edge. Why this bias? Or if anyone knows how can I turn the iPhone 13 to this seamless borderless design in ios 26.5.2, please tell me

Something funny happened, yesterday before the update I was at 100% battery health with 148 cycles, but after the update the cycle count was at 154 and health dropped to 99%, is this normal behaviour or what you think? That’s for the replies

This is my current setup. what’s your thoughts?

Bought this 64GB SE last week from a friend for $30, to use as my mobile and hotspot for my ‘WiFi only 14’. It doesn’t have any major issues is just that the screen had a crack and they’ve replaced the battery with an aftermarket battery. But the battery life is what you’d expect from an SE. Updated it to iOS 27 beta 2, and it’s running smoothly so far, no complaints, I’ve also got same update on my 14, 0 complaints.
Also I want to give this credit to Apple, I’ve been using iPhone since 2017, but I’ve never had the privilege of owning 2 or more Apple devices at once. Now that I’m using two with same Apple ID, and the integration is surreal. The devices are always connected to the same WiFi or using the hotspot from the SE. I used the see it YT but I’ve never actually experienced it, when I copied a text from any of the devices I can paste on the other, and if have an incoming a call or an sms from the SE, I can receive it on my 14, which is very very nice UX.

Many more errors/ flaws, too many to upload.

Constant visual glitches, poor performance, instability. Got to be one of the worst OS I’ve ever used.

I’m using an iPhone 17 pro…My Home Screen should not be laggy/choppy/unresponsive.

And all of this lag for a Liquid Glass effect which I hate the look of and can’t turn off! wtf!

I’m convinced they don’t actually test the OS before releasing….

I’ve joined the beta tester/feedback scheme, but honestly, if they haven’t managed to fix simple visual glitches in all of this time then I don’t see the point of even giving feedback.

I would love to hope that iOS 27 fixes most of these but in truth, I know that there are simply too many problems to fix in one update.

All I want is a stable OS that is smooth and performs well.

Once again, Steve jobs deffo turning in his 🪦

What the hell does it include for it to be 14 gigs 😭🙏

Never turned on Apple Intelligence in my new iPhone 17 Pro Max. But it’s taking space in my phone! Any advice/solution to get rid of this space reservation? Anyone else facing similar issues?
